You know, for my entire life, when I’d run across an old “Andy Griffith Show” on television, I’d invariably leave it on and watch it. Even the color ones, with Emmett and Howard Sprague. The show was a fixture.

But ever since Griffith did that Obamacare endorsement, I just haven’t been able to bring myself to watch a single minute of the series. I knew for ages that Griffith was both a lib and a miserable cuss in real-life, but it wasn’t until he got in bed with Obama that I just couldn’t stomach it anymore.

Try to give Andy a pass on this one. Lots of folks get talked into doing something wrong "for the good of the country." And think about the kind accommodation Griffith gave to Howard McNear (Floyd the Barber) after McNear suffered a stroke.

I don't see evil in Griffith's left leanings. I see a certain stupidity, which is more easily forgiven.

I was disappointed in his doing the Obamacare commercials, but I attributed it to the fact that he was old and that he really believed what he was saying. The Andy Griffith show is still a classic and I love to watch it. It always uplifts me no matter how many times I’ve seen them.
